Pros
I believe that the best reasons to work for Girl Scouts of USA are that you are able to work for a very well respected and well developed organization. That is something that cannot be said for many organizations. Also, most people have a very positive image of Girl Scouts, therefore telling people you work there, most people will say "Wow! That is pretty cool." Another thing I like a lot and think is a big motivation for people to work there is that you get to be a role model for girls and young women. You can influence the community you live in by working with the children and adults in this organization.
Cons
I do not want to knock working at Girl Scouts. It is a great organization and has so many positives. However, like most non-profits there are the challenges of creating quality programming and services, and doing so on a shoe-string budget. Also, dealing with the changing and quickly developing technology and lifestyles that people in this day an age are facing is a daunting task for the Girl Scout organization. Girls have different lives than they did back in 1912 when the organization was founded. Striking a balance between delivering modern programming and services to girls and retaining the essence the Girl Scout Law and Girl Scout Promise has been difficult for some people in the organization.
